What is Target Analysis of NPS in Alternative Matrix Hair about?

An overview of the detection of novel psychoactive substances (NPS) and their detection in hair is provided. The overview focuses on the major NPS groups, namely opioids, benzodiazepines, stimulants and hallucinogens, and synthetic cannabinoids with a focus on preparation techniques for each group followed by extraction and analysis information. Pre-analytical techniques for the preparation and extraction of NPS drugs from the hair matrix have remained somewhat constant over the last decade. Sample cleanup techniques remain focused on liquid-liquid and solid phase extraction, although with the increased availability of liquid chromatography mass spectrometric confirmation techniques many methods are now direct inject with no additional cleanup. Discussion of some of the challenges faced with this particular group of drugs is provided along with the specific challenges associated with the analysis of the hair matrix.
